Chainsaw Man Meets Vampires In Bloodline JRPG Crossover [EXCLUSIVE]

An epic crossover between the manga series Chainsaw Man and the mobile game Bloodline: The Last Royal Vampire will let players collect exclusive characters, a special outfit and more. The retro-style mobile JRPG, which is available on iOS and Android devices, is itself based on a popular Chinese graphic novel. The popularity of Chainsaw Man has left many fans waiting for a video game adaptation, and the upcoming collaboration with Bloodline: The Last Royal Vampire will finally deliver that experience.

While Chainsaw Man isn’t getting a video game yet, Screen Rant can exclusively reveal ahead of its official announcement Crunchyroll’s exciting collaboration between the dark fantasy manga and Bloodline: The Last Royal Vampire. A trailer posted to YouTube by Crunchyroll Collection reveals the crossover will run from December 20 until early January 2023 and will introduce powerful pixilated versions of Chainsaw Man characters Denji, Power, and Aki to the mobile JRPG’s roster. The Bloodline: The Last Royal Vampire crossover will also add a special Denji outfit, cosmetic profile items and unique daily rewards. Logging into the game today, December 19, will earn players currency to give them a head start collecting Chainsaw Man prizes.

Chainsaw Man Becomes A Mobile JRPG

With the manga series becoming increasingly popular since its premiere in 2018, many fans feel that Chainsaw Man is perfect for a video game given its action-packed premise. The series follows Denji, a young man who fuses with a being named Pochita and hunts fellow Devils to clear his debt. Pochita gives Denji the ability to transform parts of his body into chainsaws, making him a brutally efficient melee combatant and masterful Devil Hunter. The premise of Chainsaw Man would perfectly fit a hack-and-slash action game, but Bloodline: The Last Royal Vampire has brought the manga’s cast into the world of mobile role-play instead.

Rather than an action-packed experience filled with fast-paced chainsaw battles, Bloodline: The Last Royal Vampire delivers a robust JRPG experience where players can assemble a huge roster of heroes. Many anime series have been adapted into JRPG games like One Piece Odyssey, but Bloodline boasts hundreds of characters and customization mechanics that make each player’s heroic roster truly unique. Players build their own squad of warriors and heroes to battle hunters and vicious demons, making Denji and his friends a perfect fit.

The Chainsaw Man and Bloodline: The Last Royal Vampire crossover will let players add Denji, Power and Aki to their JRPG team beginning December 20. Logging into the mobile title today, December 19, will also grant free currency to help prepare for the collaboration event. Bloodline: The Last Royal Vampire lets players battle hunters and demons across a fantasy world, and Chainsaw Man heroes like Denji and Power should make ideal allies in that fantasy fight.
